Grade A Dark Colour, Robust Taste (formerly known as Grade B) organic maple syrup is produced as the days become warmer and longer in sugaring season. Both the colour and the maple flavour are a bit stronger and more intense than the Amber Colour, Rich Taste. The sugar content of the sap has dropped by now so, it takes more sap to make a gallon of syrup; hence the darker colour and stronger flavours. This versatile grade is great as a topping and for cooking. Its strong maple flavour also lends itself to meat glazes, cooking recipes, and on top of waffles, pancakes, or oatmeal. For seven generations, the Coombs family has farmed and harvested without pesticides and chemicals, making organic maple healthier for the forest, healthier for the environment, and healthier for consumers.
